Antora
Challenge
The Inflation Reduction Act created a new tax credit for the manufacturing of qualifying battery modules. However, the law was unclear on whether Antora's novel thermal batteries were eligible for the credit, and the resulting uncertainty created competitive challenges compared to other more conventional energy storage solutions that could clearly take advantage of this valuable new tax incentive.
Solution
BSP designed and executed a comprehensive advocacy campaign across Congress and multiple federal agencies to educate key policymakers on the advantages of Antora's thermal batteries, ultimately resulting in the successful inclusion of their technology in the final tax regulations and fundamentally improving project economics that unlocked additional investment to accelerate the company's growth trajectory.
